Mother of pearl makes a beautiful accent, and in many cases focal point, for a variety of different styles of jewelry. In this handmade bracelet, entitled Poseidon's Daughter, I've strung a total of 72 mother of pearl rice beads on three separate strands that have then been intertwined together to encircle the wrist in shimmering white.

The piece is then finished off with bursts of vibrant color when I used clusters of coral chips and round aventurine beads to complete this unique gemstone bracelet.

The end result is a unique OOAK (one of a kind) shimmering concoction that's easily able to be imagined having been plucked directly from the treasure chest of the most beautiful mermaid in all creation, Poseidon's daughter.
